I have a Barley wine in secondary for 3 weeks now and I just had the idea to add spices to the beer. I read you can add spices at bottling but maybe I'll add them 1-2 weeks before bottling. I plan to use Ginger,mixed spices, pumpkin spices and Chili peppers...into separated small batch.
Now how do I add these things? Is making an extract using vodka* the best way to extract flavor? Or should I make an infusion (tea). Or what else can I do?
*I don't drink vodka.. so it's kind of a PITA to buy some and experiment...
